Building Change Dataset

“We shape our buildings, thereafter they shape us.” – Sir Winston Churchill, 1943

We are trying to explain the urban structure, and its development pattern with heterogeneous features of buildings.

With the Korean building register dataset, we made a prototype like this.

Color of the circle represents the major building-use, and size illustrates the total area of it.

While it is a rough prototype, it shows the sense of place around the area.
